Cliff Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Bibs, What was the reason for this decision? - Cliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 I am no longer personally liable for any litigious actions, the company are. I do enjoy running this forum but am not happy about risking my house on it in case anything were to happen as a consequence of running it. Upon taking some excellent legal advice this was suggested as the best route to keep myself out of trouble, should the forum get in trouble. The value of the guarantees is Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

Evil_Dr_Fish Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 A Bloody good move if you ask me! I've seen a few things on here recently that have made me worry - one I had to edit out! Once more... YOU CANNOT SLANDER OR LIBEL PEOPLE WITH IMPUNITY! If you call (particularly) a small company crooks, crooked or anything similar, you better have some bloody solid, LEGALLY ADMISSABLE evidence or a conviction on which to base such an accusation! I know it's difficult, as when we post here, it feels like we're just having a chat / conversation among mates down the pub or something... but this IS indeed a public forum and posts do seem to be increasingly considered as "published" and the forum as the "publisher" Quote "When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.

karmavore Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I say law schools need to shut down every other year to reduce lawyer production. This would help.
